Protect your appearance from covert modeling
- Avoid uploading facial and full body photos and video of yourself to services where they are exposed to the whole Internet.
- If you need to upload photos, wear protective clothing, e.g. niqāb or burqa or protective accessories e.g. sunglasses.
- Consider getting a non-photorealistic w:avatar of your liking and use pictures of it to shield your appearance.
- Do not agree or get fooled to having your reflectance captured in a light stage.
Protect your voice from covert modeling
- Avoid uploading unaltered recordings of your w:human voice to services where they are exposed to the whole Internet.
- Consider altering the voice of your recordings if you must upload to the Internet with a voice changer or synthetic voice that does not match any human's voice.
- Avoid getting recorded by parties whose identity and reliability you cannot verify, especially if they do not expressly state how, where and for what purpose they will use the recording
- Ask for a voice changer to be applied if getting recorded to something that will be publicly broadcast
Protect your mind from the products of covert modeling
- Teach your loved ones the 2 key media literacy skills for this age of industrial disinformation:
- Not everything that looks like a video of people is actually a video of people
- Not everything that sounds like a recording of a known human's voice is actually a recording of that person's voice.
- Don't watch porn. A dodgy porn site or few is a hefty risk of seeing some digital look-alikes.
- Be critical of gossip about stuff claimed seen on the Internet.
Protect others from the products of covert modeling
- Read #Protect your mind from the products of covert modeling first. It is usually found above this. Also reading it to others has potential to help them.
- If you have strong evidence to suggest that some person may be under the influence of digital look-alikes, try to talk to them. The BCM! wiki glossary helps talk about things with their real names.
How to protect our societies from covert modeling
- Contact your representatives and ask them what is their position on the criminalizing covert modeling-question.
- Ask them what, if anything, they are doing to put this hyper-modern lawlessness under some check.
- At least ask them to talk with colleagues and also publicly about the problems caused by covert modeling.
